Dear Friend,

                                [dr_lorber2.jpg]

Greetings. My name is Dr. Richard Lorber, Senior Director of Allergy
Research at Schering Laboratories. You were kind enough to fill out the
Personal Allergy Profile on one of our partner sites. Because you
indicated it was okay for us to follow up with some additional
information, I am sending you the first issue of our new Allergy Relief
newsletter - the first of a series of useful information pieces about
allergies and how to relieve allergy symptoms. We will cover both adult
and childhood allergies through a wide range of topics that we hope will
be useful to you. Stay tuned every month for a brand new issue.

Best Wishes,
Richard Lorber, MD

Senior Director of Allergy Research at Schering Laboratories

Ask a doctor.
Q: How are allergies diagnosed? Often, a physician can diagnose allergy
based on a patient's history and physical exam alone. In order to confirm
which substances may be provoking the allergies, skin testing or blood
testing may be required.

[button1.jpg] What is an allergy anyway?
Most people can breathe in pollen, dust, and dander with no problem. But
for people who are allergic to these ordinary everyday things, these
substances present more serious consequences. They set off a complicated
chain reaction in which the body works hard to expel them. That's why
your nose runs, your eyes water, you sneeze and cough.

[button2.jpg] What are your allergy triggers?
Did you know that one ragweed plant can produce a billion grains of
pollen a day and we can't even see it? In fact, the pollen that most
often causes allergy symptoms is light, dry, and spread by the wind, not
the yellow pollen that covers your car in the morning. Even people with
pollen allergies or seasonal allergic rhinitis mistake the yellow
substance produced by garden flowers as the reason for their misery, but
the real culprits are microscopic grains of pollen released by trees,
grasses, and weeds.

[button3.jpg] Can you move to where you won’t need your allergy
medication anymore?
Once upon a time, Phoenix, Arizona was considered a haven for allergy
sufferers. Then two things happened: (1) people moving to Phoenix brought
along their favorite grasses and trees and planted them in Phoenix; and
(2) the newcomers developed allergies to the weeds and grass pollens
native to the area.

[button2.jpg] What about year-round allergies?
If you have allergies that bother you year-round, they most likely stem
from things that don't change with the seasons. The most common include
household dust mites, animal dander from pets, feathers, and mold spores.
